In Their quest for Dignity, Freedom, Justice, and Democracy, Egyptian &
Egyptian Solidarity Groups are calling upon people from all nations, races,
colors, and religions as well as human rights and peace groups and
organizations to join Egyptians abroad in their rallies to support the Egyptian
revolution.
After almost one year since those unforgettable, historical days of the
Egyptian revolution, the status quo in Egypt is worsening. The post-revolution
rulers of Egypt are still enforcing emergency law, detaining innocent people
without trial, subjecting civilians to military courts, killing protesters,
using prohibited weapons against peaceful protesters, kidnapping
revolutionists, defaming revolutionists using the state-owned media, and
torturing, targeting, and sexually insulting women, etc. These inhuman and
terrible actions have led a wide sector of Egyptians to believe that SCAF
(Supreme Council of Armed Forces) members are leading and orchestrating the
actions of the anti-revolution forces to diminish gains of the revolution.
Accordingly, we call upon those inspired by, or those who supported the
Egyptian revolution to demand the support of their government to the Egyptian
revolution. We ask every freedom supporter to join us in requesting from the
current rulers of Egypt to act immediately on the following demands:
Immediate and complete transfer of power from SCAF to the elected
parliament, and for the parliament to act immediately on:
For the US government – The immediate end of exportations from the US
government and US companies of tear gas and torture tools used on Egyptian
civilian protesters, as well as weapons used on detainees
Please join us at our Rallies around the nation, bring your family and
friends and spread the words about the support event near you. Also, please

21st. and then post it at the event Facebook page for your city.
